WE'VE all had days where nothing seems to go our way at work. For one poor soul in Tanah Merah, Kelantan, his day apparently ended awfully bad after a metal gate fell on him and killed him.
To add salt to the wound, this happened at the factory that he owned which specialised in making fences.
Is this true?
Verdict:
TRUE
A wire fence factory owner died after the iron gate at the premises in Tanah Merah here toppled over and crushed him on Sunday (March 24).
Tanah Merah district police chief Supt Mohd Haki Hasbullah said the mishap happened at 3.30pm when the 70-year-old proprietor was inspecting the perimeter fence and pushing the gate to close it.
"Suddenly, the gate wheel came off the track, causing the gate to flip over and crush the victim's entire body.
"The victim was pinned down by the fallen gate and confirmed dead at the scene," he said in a statement Monday (March 25).
Mohd Haki said a post-mortem identified the cause of death as a "crushing head injury". - Bernama
